The Lycan King’s Second Chance Mate by Sumi

ASHANTI'S POV.

I've been pacing about since the moment I got into this bedroom. My mind is restless, my heart is beating too fast, and sweating out of nervousness and confusion. I have no idea what's going on. When Beta Ronald got me out of that dungeon cell, I thought he was taking me to the execution ground, but he brought me to the Alpha's chambers and asked me to go wait for him in his bedroom. He didn't give me a reply when I asked him what was going on and now, my mind is in chaos as I try to imagine the possible reasons why I could have been brought here.

Does Alpha Reagan want to have sex with me one last time before he orders his guards to chop my head off?

Tss...

Terrible, terrible, terrible thoughts cross my mind.

I literally jump on my spot out of immense fear when the room door creaks open. My heart falls to the ground when Alpha Reagan steps in. I look at his face, trying to read his mood, but that plan fails because his expression is blank.

"Alpha Reagan." My voice is a broken whisper. He walks over to where I'm standing and stops in front of me. His eyes are trained on my face, giving me an intense look that nearly melts all the bones in my body. Suddenly, he smiles and I get even more confused.

"Your name has been cleared." He calmly deciphers. His words ring in my ear like a huge church bell. My pupils dilate and I let out a breath I didn't even know I was holding. Relief sends chills down my spine and I tremble at the sensation.

My name has been cleared.

That sounds too good to be true.

"Really?" That is all I manage. He gently nods his head.
